So i think we have figured out these might be chigger bites. I have 48+ bites all over me and they ITCH!!! I don't think they could be fleas - i have not seen one bug at my house and i boiled, scoured and vaccuumed. I searched in every nook and cranny - nothing. I can't believe that i'm telling people i hope it's chiggers---at least i don't have an infestation then. Please God let it be chiggers. So far the dog has not scratched once.
